Storming through the desert like my name is viento
Since two leaders are thinking that they're kings like in Sacramento
Came so fast, there was a draft, I had to leave on a plane
Because the Grand Old Party picks young guys for pain

I know he's the same one we fought under Bush the Senior
Now we're hearing we should fear him more and he's meaner
Is what I'm hearing really true, or is George Double U
Just twisting things around to change our views?

I don't want to lose my life
And become a casualty of an oil raid
Don't wanna fall and die
Become a victim of a stupid crusade
I want out

Because he don't
Know how to read he sent us all overseas
I know that makes no sense but well neither does he
Facing men and their bullets is almost okay
But missiles and gas are their weapons today

Cause they like killing us when they are at a safe distance
If I make it back I am sure that I won't miss this
I'm sorry for my sins, and everything I did
That could have made me deserve stuff like this

I don't want to lose my life
And become a casualty of an oil raid
Don't wanna fall and die
Become a victim of a stupid crusade
I want out

Don't shout at me, you make my ears hurt
Don't shout at me, I think I'll desert
Don't shout at me, since I'm a bad soldier
Don't shout at me, just send me home, sir

Well this is no business for a kid to be in
I've been twenty one for about twenty days now
I feel stranded in the desert walking 4 hours straight now
I have lost my breath can we stop and eat from trays now
I wish that I could say what I'm thinking now out loud
But I must keep this secret or I'll anger the crowd
That bought Dubya's distortion, this heat it is scorchin'
I wish that Barbara Bush would've had an abortion

I don't want to lose my life
And become a casualty of an oil raid
Don't wanna fall and die
Become a victim of a stupid crusade
I want out
Lose my life right here
Causualty of an oil raid
Fall and die oh dear
Victim of a stupid crusade
I want out
